Going into the summer I will be sharing some of my favorite sermons, this is on Psalm 1. God Bless!
"What does it take to make you happy? Why is it so difficult to stay happy? Even those questions provoke the thought that lasting happiness is nearly impossible here on Earth. So many people are discouraged in their quest for happiness amidst this tragic life. Their pursuit only leaves them hopeless and in despair. But Scripture has the answers! Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones leads us through the first two verses in Psalm 1, and explains how God reveals His prescription for true peace and lasting joy. Far beyond the temporal emotion of happiness, there is a lasting joy that characterizes the life of one who follow's God's prescribed plan. By contrasting the two alternatives, and discussing the theory and the practice, the negative and the positive, you'll discover the biblical view—that man always seeks happiness in the wrong place, and that there is no true happiness apart from God."
